Ingredients

1 cup cornmeal

1 tbsp salt

1 cup hot boiling water

canola oil for frying (recipe calculation assumes 1 tsp of oil retained in each cornbread pattie)

Directions

Pour 1 cup boiling water over cornmeal in bowl to make it swell and form into a thick porridge consistency, thick enough to form into patties between hands. Shape patties and ease into a skillet with hot canola oil. Fry and turn until patties begin to brown on both sides. Remove and let drain on paper towels. Especially good with blackeyed peas and sliced tomatoes.
Makes about 6 5-inch by 3 inch patties.
